SCHICIMI TOGARASHI (Japanese Seven Spice Blend)
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon ground Nori (toasted seaweed that is used for some types of sushi)
- 2 teaspoons white sesame seeds
- 2 teaspoons black sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon dried orange peel
- 2 tablespoons red pepper chili flakes
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Sichuan or Sansho peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger powder
Instructions
- Pre-heat a large skillet over medium low heat on your stove. Add the sesame seeds, chili flakes and peppercorns to the pan. Toast for 2 to 3 minutes stirring often and ensuring that they don't burn. Pour on a plate to cool.
- Add the orange peel to the pan and toast for 2 minutes. Pour onto the plate and let cool.
- Once all of the ingredients are completely cooled down, grind them in a spice grinder. Work in batches if needed. If the sesame seeds don't completely turn into powder form, this is completely fine.
- Mix the spices together well and store in an airtight container until needed. If stored properly in a cool dark pantry, it will keep its freshness for around 2 months.
